Austria: Extensive List of Austrian Jewish Heritage Sites Now Online

The website www.jewish-heritage-europe.eu has posted an extensive list of Jewish heritage sites in Austria. The Austria pages are divided into three sections: An Introduction, Austria 1 (Vienna), and Austria 2(Outside Vienna).

The site lists museums, collections, libraries, synagogues, cemeteries, memorials and other sites with Jewish associations. I have been providing comprehensive lists to Jewish-Heritage-Europe.eu, and more than twenty countries are now posted. Detailed lists for Bulgaria and Greece will be posted soon. Sharman Kadish and Jon Cannon in the UK also contribute to the writing and editing process.
